    Compare the four templates

    Inside the active slot you'll see four template tiles. Each has a distinct layout:

    • Menu 1 — clean, photo-forward. Great for cafés and quick-service restaurants.
    • Menu 2 — multi-section dark theme. Best for full-service dinner menus.
    • Special — tile grid for hero items, daily specials, limited offers.
    • Classic — print-style with serif type and aligned prices. Timeless.

    Click a template thumbnail and the editor opens with default sample data. From here you'll edit items, prices, and photos — see Edit menu items, prices & photos.

Tips & Common Issues

  • •Switching templates resets the menu data in that slot. Save your old data elsewhere first if you need it.
  • •Try each template once with sample data to see what fits — you can always switch back.
  • •For a coffee shop or bar, Special (tile grid) usually looks best. For a full-service restaurant, Classic reads more easily from across a room.
